Insurance Can Be Recovered Ahead Of Schedule

Invalidity insurance (AI) can be faster than expected and with less drastic measures be restored. Is what the media said today Federal Councillor Didier Burkhalter, stating that the 14.9 billion of debt against the AVS possibly extinct already in 2025, i.e. five years ahead of schedule. The deficit will still be on 8-9 billion in 2018, Minister of sociality explained. The Federal Council's expected that Parliament adopted a first package of measures for the sixth revision of the AI (which in 2012 should be), the second before submitting.

The Government has also taken into account the most recent figures for 2010, he Burkhalter added. These data confirm an improvement in the situation. In comparison with 2003, the number of new income is nearly half (47%). Since 2007, in addition, reintegration measures increased by two thirds. If the Federal Council decisions before the second package has taken, this would have been otherwise, he recognized the radical liberal Minister. If the figures relating to the 2010 less encouraging, were stricter measures proposed.

However, the measures already decided and have produced more than expected. The objective remains the sustainable consolidation of insurance, said Federal Councillor.
